Grub defaults to passing 'quiet' to the kernel, and no systemd options. Installing the systemd package does not change the options passed to the kernel, and AFAIK cannot for Policy reasons. When the 'quiet' option is passed to the kernel, systemd picks this up and sets systemd.show_status=false and systemd.sysv_console=false. [The default for both of these is 'true' if the 'quiet' option is not present.] The result is that no daemon startup messages are sent to the console during bootup when the 'quiet' option is used, unless these settings are chagned via passing the additional kernel boot options described in the previous email above *after* the 'quiet' option. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle Chris.Knadle@coredump.us GPG Key: 4096R/0x1E759A726A9FDD74
